Mandatory packages
- the following commands should install all the needed prerequisites (assuming root shell):
yum install gcc gcc-c++ make autoconf automake libtool bison flex gettext yum install patch subversion texinfo git wget yum install zlib-devel gettext-devel ncurses-devel lzo-devel libacl-devel yum install uuid-devel
Distribution specific tips
Fedora 13 & 14
- as uuid-devel seems not installed at the right place, you may also need to do the following:
cd /usr/include mkdir uuid cp uuid.h uuid cd /usr/lib ln -s ../../lib64/libuuid.so.1 libuuid.so
- install glibc-static to allow insmod.static compilation:
rpm -ivh glibc-static-2.12.90-15.i686.rpm
Fedora 14
Following operations are needed:
- downgrade make-3.82 to make-3.81 (Fedora 14 uses make-3.82 which is too restrictive) :
- First you need to download the correct key (https://fedoraproject.org/static/E8E40FDE.txt) and import this by :
rpm --import E8E40FDE.txt
- Now you can downgrade make
yum downgrade make --releasever=13
- And to avoid futur upgrade, you need to add
exclude=make*
in /etc/yum.conf
RedHat Enterprise 5.2
- not all packages are available by default. You can get extra packages here: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/ (for example missing lzo and lzo-devel can be found here).
Optional packages
- Not mandatory but useful to add some extra packages:
yum install glib2-devel lzo2-devel
To compile java jamvm and gnu-classpath:
yum install java-*-openjdk
